New Bed – Day Two
We have spent our first night on the new bed. To say I am underwhelmed would be an understatement. I could not get comfortable. I tried raising the head to different angles and I even raised the foot of the bed. Raising the foot is a no-go. When 5:00 in the a.m....
It Came With a Night Light — Day One
We bought an adjustable bed. Queen size, and today they bring it out. So, today, we take down our old queen size bed and make room for the new one. It will need to be plugged in somewhere. The bed will take precedence over the cell phone charger and the cordless...

Watercolor Wonder
It was a book store. There were many shelves with many books. This decorative tin was lying on top of a small display just at my level; meaning it was perfect for someone vertically challenged. The colors caught my eye and my curiosity got the better of me. This was...
‘Twas The Night Before Jesus Came
‘Twas the night before Jesus came and all through the town, Not a single space was open and Joseph did frown. The shepherds were guarding their sheep with great care, Waiting for morning, with darkness everywhere. The people were nestled all snug in their beds,...
December 12, 2018
What’s old is new again. I recently bought a pair of gloves. I was looking for something spider-proof. Having had my hand nearly chewed off by something brown and eight-legged, it is my goal to avoid another horrible encounter. I was wearing LEATHER gloves when I was...
Rescued. Thanks brother!
Have you ever been stranded by a car that just broke down? Were you left stranded in a parking lot or on the side of the road? I can speak from personal experience that sitting in a hot car while traffic zips by is a little unnerving. Most of the drivers who flew past...
